I’m an older woman and I truly enjoyed watching your videos on put the mill together and to see what you can do with it I am so happy to see your progress. Great job and I am excited to see what you do with it in the future. God bless you and your beautiful wife and family.
And your farm family.
🙋🏻♀️❤️🇺🇸
Glad to hear it, thnx so much for the comment 😊
Morning Chad, awesome to see the mill up and running. Great to see Olive, now we need a new baby Sister for her to teach about the farm! 🤞🤞🤞
@@bettyc.5070 😁
Hi Chad! This is you……😎! My Dad would have loved to have come from B.C. to work with you. He worked until retirement at Mac and Blo and did so many building projects at home, including extensions on our little house to pool decking and desks for my sister and me. Watching you and Olive mill that gorgeous oak log gave me a huge smile, especially with Molly looking on. That oak has to be made into something very special! We are finally getting our first heat wave in the lower , mainland starting at 28C today and for the next long while. I hope you and your wife are enjoying the rest of the weekend ❣️🇨🇦
@@leonafaryna7617 would have been so cool to grow up with a father like that, my Dad is the opposite of handy 😆
Used a mill plenty. Definitely use a mask as you will be exposed to the dust.
Yeah I realize it pretty quick, but I’ll also fix the bucket hook so it should lessen the overblowing a bit.
Very exciting video for sure! My grandpa would have loved this sawmill. When he retired in the mountains of North Carolina, USA, woodworking was his go-to. (1970's) He built all of the buildings on the property and also made clocks etc. This is something he never had and he would have absolutely loved it. I cannot wait to see what you create. Congratulations! He worked hard to put this together and now you get to enjoy it.
@@stardustbella I wish I had a dad like that, my Pop is not very handy nor has any interest.
Wow so cool!
My hubby enjoyed this video.
You are a workhorse! Can't wait to see what you do with the wood.
Wooowee!!
Hi Fozzy!!
@@sharonroconnellandcritters my head is spinning with ideas 💡
Never thought in a million years I’d be interested in seeing a sawmill video but here we are. Great video!
@@alisonthorn2573 haha I know right 😆
Me too!
Good morning Chad and Olive. Enjoyed watching you have fun with the saw mill. Interesting. I always learn something new from your great videos. I really enjoyed seeing Olive and she sure loves you. I sure miss seeing Molly but I am glad you have Olive. Until the next time, have a fun day. Looking forward to Monday's video.
@@janetclark6867 so glad you’re enjoying the channel. We’re still getting adjusted to life without my Molly girl, even simple things is tough like when I’m editing the videos both Molly and Olive used to always keep me company and Molly used to nudge her head under my arm cause she always wanted pets. Very loving girl, I still can’t believe she’s gone and it’s tough to cope at times 🥹
Hi Chad , good for you like a little kid in a candy shop 👍
YES!!! Very pleased to finally get it going.
Good morning Chad! It is very therapeutic Watching the mill working. So cool! Olive is such a good girl!
You got that right!
66 yr old grandma in TX, and I enjoyed this video. You could make kitchen or dining tables with the Hidden Springs Farm stamp with Molly! Down the road of course, you have plenty of projects along with daily chores. God bless you and your darling ❤
@@lindasmith826 glad you’re enjoying things, really do many possibilities with this mill.
Like the new saw mill😊
@@DeniseKalan-fn7bq right on! 🤙
🙋♀️Chad! Eighty yrs. young Kathy here! Those Oak planks would make a SUPER Dining Table for your Darlin'! 😉🤗
That would be cool!
@@HiddenSpringFarm I've seen this done on several woodworking sites on You Tube channels (from logs like you started out with to the finished table). They were SPECTACULAR! 🤩 With your skills and creativity, I know you could DIY, Chad!😉
Maybe find a pvc elbow to slip over the shoot it will put it right in your bucket
YES. What about a self-closing bag or bin that can be hauled away? Then recycled of course. There's gonna be tons of sawdust. So eventually a whole other setup.
Chad how awesome is that. You should be proud of yourself for making an excellent mill. ❤😊
@@cathymcgee1674 😁
Good morning. Congratulations on beginning your milling life.
Great video!
Love this Saturday morning video, hope there will be more
I hope so too!
Enjoyed this video and looking forward to what you build with this wood.
😁
Congratulations Chad! Now that your sawmill is complete, so many possibilities!
Oh yeah, loads 😉
Hello from New York! Loved watching your saw mill video ! Love all your videos! I told my coworkers about your channel and now there watching you too! Hello to your Darling wife ! Love her hats!! Love Olive, Chunk, Dexter , Fozy and all of your farm babies ! You are Awesome!! All the best to you and your family ❤❤😊
@@theresaa7710 aww thanks, that’s very cool of you 😎
My comment went AWOL. Oh well, congrats! 🎈
Aww thanks, it took a while to get going but now it’s just sitting there ready to cut at a moments notice.
Good morning!!!! That was so fun watching the mill at work! How awesome that you get to use the wood that is on your farm to build things! 👏🏼😀
@@mlc7896 it’s gonna be a great experience
I love the new saw mill. It worked out great. Just like cutting butter. 😊
@@fernking477 yeah it’s pretty cool, I’m pumped 💪
That is a very powerful sawmill. It will be useful in many of your projects.
Exactly, so many possibilities.
You should make a table with that oak. New income stream!
That would be nice
Really nice Chad! Made some nice cuts-Hope it gives you many fun times building new structures for your farm!😊
I hope so too!
That's the coolest thing since sliced bread! Definitely look after your lungs with a mask of some kind! I imagine you'd want to find a solution for the sawdust anyway to protect yourself and the motor :D
Yeah it’s pretty awesome, good thing about the sawdust is it can be used as a brown in the compost pile.
@@HiddenSpringFarm great idea! With the mill, you've expanded your possibilities hugely! Really inspiring stuff mate 😁
Oh that was so exciting to watch you saw that tree trunk. She's a beauty that's for sure!
Very interesting. But I just want to cuddle.Olive!
You and me both!
Awesome piece of machinery. Yes you do need to be a mask 😷 and some safety glasses 👓. Looking forward to some new buildings.
Have a great weekend 😀.
👋from 🇨🇦
Thanks a million, I was ready with eyewear but hadn’t realized the sawdust wouldn’t catch the bucket so a mask is a must moving forward. I think I can adjust the bucket so a lot more will get captured that’ll help too 😉
@HiddenSpringFarm here's a not thought through thought. ( wow!, now that's a tongue twister, I dare you to say thay 3 times. LOL) What if you build a half open shed (like the wood pile with a back) the length of the saw mill? This way, all the sawdust is already stored. 🙃🤷♀️
👋from 🇨🇦
Great Job Chad. Make sure you check for nails and metal in those trees. Add some sticker between those Pc. of lumber to let them dry out. You can even sell the slabs as firewood. I Hope you and the wife are doing well. Does Olive miss Molly, can you tell if she is looking for her, Sad, I know this hurts.
I wonder if I can buy a handheld metal thingy on Amazon, great point though. Yes Olive is very different without Molly, we can tell she understands her best friend is gone.
Love the Molly sticker on the sawmill ❤
Ok man! Now you're ready to build your house there 😀!
@@mapefpada7681 oh Yeeaahhh!!!
I think you can make a TON of money selling Charcuterie Boards.... nice!
YES!!! 👏
very satisfying to watch the logs get cut so evenly. enjoyed this and so proud of you to get it up an running! a real feat :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love watching videos
using saws
@@kathyortiz4302 that’s great news 😉
I’m no expert, but I think you did great! How exciting!
Thank you!! 😊
Build a table with that beautiful wood... For the farm house
Don't waste the initial rough cuts, use those as building siding veneers. Those as building siding added to your new building/ office would make it look like an old-style log cabin. There's your building finish. Hang three lengths horizontally three high, one on top of the other. Step back 6 feet to see what and how It looks to you.
Wow well done you have the patience of a saint to get
stuff done. Yes you definitely need a mask. 😊 X
Good looking piece of kit.
Hey, Olive 🤗
Wow Chad! You were commanding that milling machine like a pro! 👏👏👏Very exciting. Can't wait to see what else you'll build with the milled wood. Take care, wear goggles and God bless you!
Yeah thnx, it was a fairly complicated assembly but it all worked out in the end. I realized from that first log that too much sawdust is flying around, goggles and a mask are a must.
Great photography!
Thank you so much 😀
Great Job on your video! You make my brother and I excited to start a permaculture farm one day. Every time you make a farm animal video, or a building video, it inspires us!😊
Nice, glad to be of service 👍
Very nice. You could probably sell live edge slabs if you want, very popular at the moment
Honda motors really are amazing.
Agreed
Definitely wear a mask.
So you could build fireplace mantels, wood countertops and sell them. If I lived closer I would have you built me a countertop & mantel. Possibilities are endless, have fun. Watch the fingers.
@@user-es3zh3jk5o loads of things I could do, actually this log could have been a mantle.
Your new machine is a beautiful beast 😅.
Have a ever watched outdoors with the Morgans??
Hes here on you tube. I watch his channel also.
Enjoy your new toy she will save you a lot of money building your home!!
Sending love and support from Florida 🌺✨✨✨
U deserve this chad
@@kikidoulove YES!!! 👏
Amazing ! Loved it! My husband recently got a splitter and we felt pretty developed to have it, but this is crazy fun to watch.
Great video:D
Glad you enjoyed it
👍👍👍so wonderful u can Harvest your own lumber !!! You are a smart talented guy…
Yeah it’s so awesome 😎
Hey Chad. WAY COOL BROTHER. Loved this video! You are inspiring us to want to build things too! We are learning along with you. You made my day today bud. How fun is this, I tell you... 😁
Suggestion: painters mask.
Awesome! Thank you!
You are Amazing!
You are!
Congrats on your purchase! A while back I watched a few videos of people buying a similar saw and it me thinking of the possibilities. Have Fun!
@@DavidD03820 yeah since we have a forest that needs some management it made sense. Milling, firewood, cabins in the wood…maybe sugar shack or treehouse 😉
Really enjoy watching your videos! Please wear a mask though, there is a lot of stuff thrown up by milling. Protect yourself!
@@vettatertiary530 yes it’s a must, as I said at the end all that dust can’t be good for me in the long run.
Great job for your first time!
I think you did an amazing job for your first time milling! I’m just so excited for you!! Smooooth as butta! Great video! 🤗🤗🤗
Aww thanks, I think I did fairly well too and will become a pro in no time 😉
@@HiddenSpringFarm I have no doubt that you will!
Marvellous jobs Chad!
Chad you are amazing. Your darling is blessed to have you. Great job on the wood. You built that machine by yourself. You are truly talented and amazing. Love you guys. That sticker of Molly on it was a great idea. Take care and be safe. 💜❤️💕❤️🩹
Aww thanks 😊
You have some really nice toys. Love your channel....sad about your dog😢. Keep up the good work..and all the best..
Thank you, I will
That was fun!👍😎
YES!!! 👏
Chad, loved this video. 🧡 Good job & good on ya!
Cheers.
Give some extra lovin to the cats for us.😻
Awesome thanks 🙏
Oooo…. You should take that sticker Image of Molly and get a miniature brand made from it…. When You build things with your milled wood, you can heat up that brand, and mark it! How cool would that be if you were to make a table with your milled wood and have a crafters mark on it?!?!?!
Awesome Chad🎉
beautiful wood, wow, you are really being self reliant.
@@snakey319 we’re one step closer now 😉
❤️
Awesome video Chad 😊
Wow so cool sir!!!🎉🎉🎉
Thanks! 😃
Hi Chad, you mentioned in your last video that your videos on the sawmill and stuff like that get lett attention that the other ones.. What a pity!! I just wanted to let you know that I love them, I really like videos in which you explain stuff/machines/the work you do on the farm or in which you build structures - and it's not to inform myself, because first thing, I'm female and and secondly, in Austria we definitely don't have nor the amount of land/property neither the possibility to have a saw mill as a private individual... So it's really just for the fun of it and I really enjoy your explanations and getting information about things that are out of the normal "comfort zone", the things you normally have contact with in your daily life 🤩So I guess I just wanted to let you know that doing these videos is definitely not a "waste of time", I'm sure there are more people like me/us (the whole family watches) who really do enjoy them!! Keep up the great work, Chad!! 🤩😍 Blessings
thnx so much for the comment. The fact that it doesn't get me the same views doesn't stop me I still want to show all aspect of small farm life through my unique perspective. Lots of people do like the "non-animal" videos but a lot of folks are watching for the cats or dogs or all the other animals. I'm not giving up as it's people like you that keep me going. We visited Austria years ago Vienna and Saltzburg if I remember right.
@@HiddenSpringFarm Oh wow, really, you've been to Austria!! Did you enjoy the trip? I'm in Tyrol, the state west of Salzburg.
Good job !!! Everyone starts out as a beginner. A few channels I watch have started milling their own boards from their trees. I think it is a wonderful idea. Maybe you could build something really special with the first boards you have milled. A bench in the garden or orchard. By the way, when you are working around this type of machiney, it would be a good idea to wear tighter clothing. Loose clothing can get caught on anything and pull you into a dangerous position. Farm & ranch accidents are terrible. We like you too much to see something happen to you or your darling. Be careful.
{I lost a brother-in-law to a tractor accident}.
💜💜
I would put a hose over it at the exit of the wood chips and then put it in a ton.
Yes something like that, to lessen the amount of dust flying everywhere.
@@HiddenSpringFarm And you can collect it for wood briquettes
If the dog is near, that machine doesn't make much noise
Very true the Honda engine is very quiet compared to others.
Be careful with that contraption!
Can you say COMPOST !!!!! from all that saw dust. EXCELLENT job setting up the mill. Definitely wear a mask and eye protection. Do you use water to lubricate the blade ?
Hi, 🤗 , Hidden Spring Farms, I want to say, That I thought, All the whole process about this Machine was sooo Interesting. Thank you for sharing about it. I liked it Immensely this video. My Dad when he was fixing stuff. Sort of what you do building things around your property. 🆒🆒👍🙄🙂..My Dad's in Heaven now. But, This makes me think about Him. Wood & fixing stuff + he fix his vehicles from time to time. 😏👍.
Blessings to you & your Family. 🙏. And thank you for sharing your animals withe me & the RUclips Family. I get joy from all of it. Sincerely, Elsa R. 64 yrs. young/old woman. From out in California. PSS...give your Cats a Hug from me.🙄🙂👍.... >\(^o^)/
For the dust chute use a rain gutter down spout curved joint. Screw it to your chute, with the gutter bend joint angled into the bucket. Easy pleasy.
Dude come on now, I'm a network administrator, and a Suburban dweller. But for every situation that befuddled you I've come up with solutions on the fly. It's not hard I as I see it.
Awesome video Chad. Just being curious if the sawmill only works one way, or does it go both ways. Yes, the bucket should be higher so it catches all the sawdust. You did a wonderful job in milling. The planks look beautiful. Thoughts and Prayers.Thank you for sharing. Love and Blessings. Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
It only cuts one direction, so once it reaches the end the blade must be lifted up to pull the cutting head back then lowered to the desired cut then go again.
@@HiddenSpringFarm OK. One direction. Thank you. That is great. 👍
Hi, Chad! So. While you are still learning how to use the sawmill, would you have any interest in cutting a piece of live-edge for me? I don't know how much it would cost to get it to California, but I thought I'd ask you'd be willing before I tried to figure it out.
I probably wouldn't mind at all although the price is probably prohibitive to ship. The problem with live edge slabs to my knowledge is that the tree needs to be cut during mid winter so that it has the best chance of the bark staying on. And be milled right away, not sit for months at a time. If a tree is cut in spring or other times when the sap is running the bark will most likely fall off.
@@HiddenSpringFarm Well, then I'd say that gives me sometime to work out the logistics. Maybe a road trip to Canada . . .
WHAT a great machine!!! How much pressure do you have to exert during the walking you did with each cut? (it looked like a hot knife through butter actually..) looks like SO MUCH fun!!
Not much at all, mind you the blade is brand new but still…very easy and smooth. And it’s an oak log so very hard wood.
Should synthetic oil be used on a new engine?
The manual recommends it
Rotate the log into the log stops, not away from them.
@@mandmmilling3716 yes I do, that was just a smaller log I was testing. The handy new upgrade with this hm136 max is the log stops have rubber rollers on the top which is supposed to allow the logs to roll into them easier.
Do you think now that you have this mill you will be building a cover or a shed type of roof for it??? 🤔🤔
😂I asked to soon LoL 16:20
Gotta get that saw dust bucket some saw dust next time. Good vid otherwise.
@@sbwmurray3988 haha oh I’m on a roll now 😉
Do you have and college education and technology licenses like NAIT and SAIT or all home schooled?
I don’t even know what that is 😆
@@HiddenSpringFarm northern and southern Alberta institutes of technology, trades
@@jamiejones7325 haha oh I see 😆
@@HiddenSpringFarm where and how to learn skills for farming today
Won't that smaller piece fit, now tĥat you've cut it?
Wow! What à great economy with this beatiful wood. Maybe people will come to you to cut some of their wood.
You'll even be able to make some extra money from your wood if you wam to.
Found my AWOL comment meant for today attached to a vlog from a month ago-either I’m getting senile or technology is out to get me today! Suspect senile😆
What a sense of satisfaction you must have in assembling the mill, putting it to work for the first time, and looking forward to the self sufficiency it means. The pioneer astounded to even imagine such a thing! Does the mill require a lot of maintenance? 💪🏻🪓😅
Haha I hear ya 😝 don’t think it needs a lot of maintenance though. When blades become dull it’s a problem and although not setup yet I also got the blade sharpener and the tooth setter.
Rather than cut the first long log with the offset kink vertically,
What you should have done is cut horizontally the kink down smoothly with your chainsaw. Common Sense
Dude, Your Not A Thinker outside the box kinda guy. Adapt situations to your needs, never let them overcome you.
That being said, that sawmill is going to save you a Business ton of money, as you cam now make your own 2X'S, 4X'S, 6X'S ect ect. I'm very envious of you.with all that acreage of trees, put that sawmill to work and sell your acres of lumber to your neighbors.
Watch youtuber (Adam) at (Hometownacres) for tips on using and cutting, storing and bundling lumber and firewood for sale. He has a very smart efficient cost effective method. Follow Adam's method.
You know what. You obviously have zero idea what it takes to create videos like I do. Because I didn't do what you thought I should have is questionable. Instead of your snide comments, just think for a second how many hours i have available to actually film. It's literally my first couple hours using the mill and you just say something like I can't think outside the box or I don't have common sense. Adam is an accountant and started out just like me, only difference is I have a farm. I'll figure it out as I go. I have no plans at this time to make businesses from my mill as I just don't have the time unlike Adam and others who are able to quit their jobs and youtube full time. But really I'm not one who just copies others if you haven't figured that out yet. I've built up my farm to be probably the most unique on youtube, but I don't think outside the box? Always backhanded compliments with you, of course I have common sense. Maybe retirees can sit around and watch youtube all day but I have far too many things to do. If you were to cite a specific video that's better. Since you've been doing this kind of work your whole life just provide advice, ideas or maybe praise or even disappointment. Most of your comments I take it with a grain of salt but come on dude, whether you meant it that way or not it's not cool. Just enjoy the entertainment. Chad out.
Hey, Chad and 🫒
This mill is just in time to make wood for your sugar shack.
Yup one step closer
I’m an older woman and I truly enjoyed watching your videos on put the mill together and to see what you can do with it I am so happy to see your progress. Great job and I am excited to see what you do with it in the future. God bless you and your beautiful wife and family.
